If your dog is showing any aggression, you need to have the right professional evaluate your dog. Unfortunately, our industry is unregulated and one of the problems is that you can get someone who was just laid off and trained the family’s pet three years ago so now they are a dog trainer this week. Unfortunately, there is no way for you to know who they are. It takes skill to recognize whether they are just good with dogs or a qualified professional with a deep level of skill and mastery that they have acquired from twenty or thirty years of training. So, what you can begin to recognize in someone with that level of skill is an ability to work with the dog from the second they begin. You’ll see the dog responding to them differently than anyone else. If you get a dog trainer who doesn’t know exactly what they are doing they are going to lead the dog into more serious problems sooner rather than later. CALL NOW!

Sometimes dogs are aggressive, for example, lying on the floor with a bone. Someone would go over and bend down to pet the dog and the dog growls, snarls and/or snaps. The dog can be doing one of two things: One, it could be challenging you, telling you to go away and leave it’s bone alone, like you want it, this is when the dog is treating you like a dog. The other is the dog is actually afraid of you, however in both scenarios the dog is still warning you to back away. In either case we can help you. CALL NOW.
